Colonel Noake ... was at Balaclava, and though not actually one of the 600, received a big wound that day which has troubled him ever since. During the Maori war he took an active part in the management of affairs, and during all the years he has been connected with volunteering he has earned the esteem of all who have served under him as a gentleman and an officer. He is about to leave the Wanganui district for the North and he writes:-
I am going to that part of New Zealand in which its earliest and most interesting history was made - Hokianga. I have possessed myself of the property where Old New Zealand was written by the owner - Judge Manning - where he lived his life, and make memorable by his graphic description of his first introduction to the country, in the chapter headed Beef and Melons. All who know him, or who appreciate a good solder, and a man who can ride straight will join us in wishing him success.
